Suzuki Intruder description

2004 Suzuki Intruder Volusia 800 (VL800), Take one look at the Volusia's styling and you'll see an incredible fusion of retro style and classic cruiser design. It has a wide tank, flared fenders and traditional spoked wheels with chromed rims. The seat has deep padding and leather-grain embossing. Show-quality chrome sparkles everywhere, and it's painted with four color coats plus a clear coat for a deep, rich finish. This is a bike designed to turn heads. But there's a lot more to the Volusia than styling. It takes traditional design and gives it a high-energy charge of contemporary performance. Its liquid-cooled 45-degree powerplant produces a load of torque, enough to make your stomach flip every time you twist the throttle. It's matched to a slick-shifting five-speed transmission with ratios ideally chosen for quick acceleration around town and smooth cruising on the highway. Best of all, the Volusia combines style, performance and comfort all in one. Its long, low chassis helps produce a spacious riding position. The engine uses offset crankpins and shaft drive for smooth operation. And sleek telescopic forks and a progressive single-shock rear suspension system combine to provide a plush, supple ride. Put it all together and you'll find you can kick back and cruise the open highway hour after hour in total comfort. The Volusia also invites you to personalize it exactly to your taste and needs. Choose from a variety of Genuine Suzuki Accessories, including everything from leather saddlebags to chrome front and rear fender trim. The 2003 Volusia. Tradition never looked so good.

Suzuki Reports Q3 2013-2014 Sales Results

Fri, 07 Feb 2014

Suzuki reported a 13.1% decrease in motorcycle sales volume over the first three quarters of its 2013-2014 fiscal year, but still managed a 17.8% increase in net sales from its motorcycle division. That may seem like a paradox, but the results can be explained by a more favorable exchange rate for the Japanese yen and by looking closer at where those sales decreases took place. The yen has turned around significantly over the last year and a half, vastly improving how foreign sales affect Suzuki’s bottom line.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show.  On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca.  With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem.  When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season.  We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!
